and they used that tactic on President Clinton too. Even our liberal city newspaper had a headline in bold and huge font "Constitutional Crisis". That was the day I cancelled my subscription and I have never subscribed to a newspaper again.

As the VP candidate in 1972?

If Biden steps aside we are going to have months of the media hand wringing that the Dems don't know what they are doing. Months.

And Absolute Evil will WALK into the white house.

The Democratic party will go the way of the Whigs.
It will no longer exist under a fascist dictatorship.
Government will be purged of ALL "UNDESIRABLES" or "vermin", if you will.
Hundreds of thousands will die as the result of the coming Christo-fascist destruction of the democracy, as well as the unchecked violence started by the Magat extremists.
Social programs will be gutted. Bank accounts seized. Just review Project 2025 if you don't see it coming.

There will be, in the coming decades, only a small sliver of Europe holding out against Putin to the east and a Nazi America to the west.

There is just no way in hell, I would ever want to be associated or seen with the wantonly ignorant trash that gathers at a MAGAT pep rally.

Wearing diapers and carrying obscene signs just can't be what normal Americans do.

Keep asking your stupid questions one after the other in different ways and our answer will always be “We are sticking with Joe!”

Before he left the newsroom, he was reminded that the story is, Joe Biden must drop out, and which Wisconsin delegates will support and open convention. I guarantee, if he'd found any they'd have been on camera.

Dumping Biden would be an insane move. He has been an active and wise POTUS.

As always, the M$M just wants a shit show for ratings.

the elite cable pundits are so insular they quote "sources" which, in fact, are other cable pundits...they presume to know what's in the minds of everyday Americans...they don't know squat ....the frothing DC beltway saboteurs calling for Biden to withdraw are facing the wrath of their Democratic constituencies...they weren't elected to shit all over Biden...

we the people know Biden is old, that he's slow and his speech is measured (he was old when we elected him) but we know he's delivered..improved our lives...and we also know Trump is a threat to humanity...and so we will "dance with who brung us"...and that's Joe Biden...

that is the state I grew up in and love. There is no "crisis" - and folks in Wisconsin are not afraid to call out the elites and tell them that.

I trust Joe Biden. He is not some egomaniac who would run if he felt he couldn't do the job. He knows he can do it and it's about time all the Democrats with doubts start trusting the wisdom and integrity of JOE.

From the Democratic Party Online website, the Biden Victory Fund Webstore.

I will donate more money to Joe very soon.

"Dark Brandon" rocks! No matter what they call him!
